Admasculine: Transitioning Towards Masculinity

admasculine: transitioning towards masculinity

adfeminine: transitioning towards femininity

these are meant to be slightly more inclusive than ‘transmasculine’ and ‘transfeminine’. who wouldn’t feel included by trans-? why do we need ad-? i’m glad you ask! here are some examples:

an AFAB bigender person who has been on T for a long time and now needs to do the same things as transfeminine people to pass on girl days would be transmasculine but adfeminine

a man in a system who has to dress up the body of his cis woman host when he fronts to feel himself would be admasculine

a trans woman would be adfeminine, because it’s an umbrella term that transfeminine falls under

a cis man with kallman’s syndrome who chooses to take T might be admasculine

an AFAB nonbinary femme might call themselves adfeminine because they feel like they’re transitioning into a different kind of femininity than the heteronormative role they were assigned at birth

a butch woman who transitions but wants to avoid the connotations of transmasculine might feel more comfortable calling herself admasculine

a woman in a system who’s transfeminine inworld but fronts into an AFAB body would be adfeminine

an intersex person who has undergone medical intervention but doesn’t consider themselves trans might talk about their experiences instead as an adgender person
